My book, Composition, Creative Writing Studies, and the Digital Humanities, examines the intersection of composition studies and creative writing, particularly the ways in which new media studies and digital technologies affect conceptions of "craft" in creative writing and how digital understandings of craft stand to develop the teaching of not only imaginative writing, but also expository and essay writing. In general, I'm interested in how the literary and aesthetic avant-garde of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries - in music, painting, and film as well as writing - has informed digital writing practices.

Other research interests: ethics and rhetoric, humor and rhetoric, and sound studies.
